Meet our Camp Staff

Our camp staff is always hard at work creating a summer full of adventure and memories! Meet our camp directors and discover their favorite place at camp and learn about the friendly seasonal staff who make it all happen:

April “Rosie” Eyler – Camp Conshatawba: Rosie has a combined five years of professional experience teaching and in the camping industry. She prefers her marshmallow golden and extra gooey and her favorite place at Camp Conshatawba is the Climbing Tower! Learn more about Camp Conshatawba.

Stephanie “Capi” Capilongo – Camp Hawthorne Ridge: Capi has five years of outdoor recreation experience and she now refers to the outdoors as a reliable old pal. Capi prefers roasted vegetables over the fire to a marshmallow. You can find Capi running backcountry trails and training for her next trail race. Learn more about Camp Hawthorne Ridge.

Christine “Summer” Swain – Camp Redwing: Summer has had a passion for the outdoors for as long as she can remember and has been teaching outdoor recreation since 2016. She prefers her marshmallow barely cooked and just enough to squish when you put it on the graham cracker. You can find her on a SUP board on the water and anywhere warm soaking up the sun. Learn more about Camp Redwing.
Kayla “Cakes” Cook – Camp Skymeadow: Cakes has been in the camp industry for 5 years and has her marshmallow roasting down to a science–one side a little extra crispy and the other golden brown, the best of both worlds! You can find Cakes “horse-ing” around at the barn or perfecting her aim at the archery range. Learn more about Camp Skymeadow.

Summer camp seasonal staff are enthusiastic, talented, and caring individuals who have been carefully selected based on their maturity, program skills, experience, and their ability to serve as role models. They receive intensive pre-camp training each year to ensure a top-notch camp experience for all Girl Scouts. Learn more about our camp staff on our Parent Central/FAQs page.

A Day at Girl Scout Camp

Our camp sessions are overflowing with ways to make friends and memories and every day is full of fun and adventure! Here's a peek at what a typical day at camp looks like:

Girl Scouts will participate in four programs per day (dependent on weather and/or health and safety precautions) ranging from swimming to hiking to taking on the challenge course to horseback riding. In between all of the fun, camp traditions like campfires, evening activities, cookouts, and s’more making take place.
Three well-balanced meals and one afternoon snack are served daily (vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and dairy free options are available).
Campers participate in kapers (camp chores) like setting up for meals, leading songs after meals, cleaning up their cabin, and other daily tasks together as a unit to enhance the camp community.
At camp, we believe that girl-led programs are vital to the Girl Scout movement. Campers will have the opportunity to make important decisions in their unit like their cookout meal, choice activities, campfire songs, and lead their very own Scout’s Own ceremony on Friday!

Do I Have to be a Girl Scout to go to Camp?

Not a Girl Scout? No problem! Girl Scouts is for every girl—and you don’t need to join a troop. Simply become an Individually Registered Girl Scout and you can enjoy all of the activities and programs that make Girl Scouts Western Pennsylvania so much fun—including camp!

Warning. This is not your everyday summer experience. Come ready to make new friends, play, explore, discover, and have the time of your life. It’s going to be one unforgettable summer.
